Offstage voice: Public access channel 82 now brings you NASA Reject. NASA Reject is proud to bring you all the latest news from space.

Podium: Welcome to the Pathfinder Press Conference.
P1: The mission has been going extremely well, and we're all extremely excited at how extremely good our first results are.
P2: We're excited today to be able to show you our latest set of images in what we've called our "Faculty Pan."

Walk in with Monster Pan, with faculty heads taped to it.

P2: Identifies landmarks as shown on the poster.
Podium: And now we'll take a few questions from the audience.
Q1: Do you have an idea of how old some of these features are?
P1: Yes, we think that they range from relatively young to quite ancient, although the majority are on the rather old side.
Q2: Doesn't that feature look like a face? Is it a sign of Martian intelligence?
P2: No, that is an artifact of the lighting conditions at the time this pan was taken. In fact, under different lighting conditions, that feature looks like this : (show picture of a rock).
Q3: Have you found any evidence of John Lewis?
P1: *sighs* No, but we'll keep looking.
Podium: I'm afraid that's all the time we have for questions today. Our next press conference is scheduled in 5 minutes.
